I have too many PFs and am looking to move Sullinger for a PG/SG/SF. Send me an offer at michaelrs @ gmail.com

I'm thinking one of my scrubbier guards (Grant/Mills/Marshall/Belinelli/Cunningham) for one of your scrubbier PF/C's, but I will listen to other ideas.

ok, but the .304 ft% is also not a fit. He's not a smallball C.

He attempted like 9 FTs all of last year and missed 6. That's not a big enough amount to drag your FT% down.

He attempted 101 fts last year. And he was ranked 341. If he gets enough minutes to be worthy of owning, he will take enough free throws to mess up my team.

He is not a smallball C. He just isn't.

Ok guys, I have had it enough with this. We have two gm's having the next 6 picks between eachother so you'd expect things to go rather quickly, yet they managed just three picks in 15 hours (and counting...) between themselves. And one gm was posting in this thread whilst on the clock and yet he made his pick three hours after his post (at the 7th hour 51st minute of his time). This is simply unacceptable.

Send lists and / or make your research / explore your trades before you are OTC.

As of now, the pick time is reduced to 6 hours. And it will be reduced to 4 hours if the same pattern continues.

Holy ****, I think Horford added 3pt shot to his arsenal. I was sorta expecting this, but was not banking on it.

ok, team is done. at least for now. here it is:

fg%: average
ft%: elite
3pts: elite
pts: below average
rbd: bad
ast: good
stl: elite
blk: tank
to: average

the idea is to win my elite cats against pretty much everyone, and to win fg% and to against other smallball teams (since many will be below avg at these). i will lose fg%/rbd/blk to big teams. Hope to pull out either pts or to's against them but i think i'll need some breakouts from my bottom 6 players for that to happen.

Looks like our teams may be built pretty similarly. Will be interesting to see which of our teams comes out on top

Gokce sent me his pick, but my guess is I won't be up to make it for him, can anyone take it for me?

blk: WB

In other news, Gary Harris was not who I'd been targeting for the past 20 picks, but he's positioned to land the starting gig in Denver so I decided to roll the dice.

Gokce lays down the hammer - draft gets moving. This may be the most picks we've had over a weekend.

Cursory ranking of the 6 teams with 14 players:

1a. floppy - nice small ball team, though 4 of the 6 completed teams have good strength at PG, it's hard to rank them; floppy and sabonis are neck and neck in my opinion
1b. sabonis - should be an interesting h2h match up with floppy as they have about same type of build; sabonis has the edge over floppy's weaknesses, but floppy has edge in some the strengths, if he stays healthy, Rubio will anchor and carry the assists and steals.
3. wb - the third small ball team out of the 6. As usual, he's banking on some unknown players to breakout. I think that strategy only pays off 20% of the time or less. The king of the waiver wire.
4a. theMan - may be the most inefficient of 6 teams; see high TOs, lowest ft%, fg% average; I don't like a team with LMA and DH12 together, as they don't fit well; Rondo is a wildcard
4b Curt - new guy has a balance of players and is anchored by Lebron, who isn't likely a top 3 fantasy player, is still a great player to build around.
6. alciG - may be the most balanced of the 6 teams, but balance doesn't always cut it in h2h

are these just your assumptions or projections of some site (probably bbm)? either way if you have a table for stats, would be interesting to see each team.
I like having ham in this league, as he gives the time to write these small write-ups. Even my team sucks, I love to read these things.
